Hi Derek, If you have CTI on your existing Asset tracking form, you can run an escalation to push all assets with say Cat = Hardware and Type = PC into BMC_ComputerSystem form. Remember you have to set certain extra fields like the class name, dataset id etc.
Yes, you have to separate various types of assets into their own classes. You can run one escalation for each based on CTI. Regards, Murtuza. -----Original Message----- From: Action Request System discussion list(ARSList) [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Derek Fernandes Sent: Thursday, October 19, 2006 1:40 AM To: [email protected] Subject: cmdb 2.0 data Hi list, We just got our sandbox CMDB 2.0 environment set up and we are experimenting with the application (we did not use CMDB 1.0). We do not have any of the Discovery tools to automatically populate the instances, so is there an easy way to import/populate from an existing source (another Remedy form we were using for Asset tracking)? Are we supposed to use the Remedy Import tool? If every instance is supposed to have a class (ie. BMC_ComputerSystem), do I need to separate all the computer system items and just import those? then do the applications, etc.? Some guidance would be greatly appreciated.
